Screw both of them, as far as I’m concerned. I haven’t taken Snopes seriously since the 90s, when they “debunked” all of the mysterious (and convenient) deaths surrounding the Clinton crime syndicate.
Media Leaks From The FBI
If this is true, he shouldn’t be “criticized,” McCabe should be indicted or prosecuted. They do this because they assume they can get away with it. A few vacations in Club Fed might put an end to that.

Oh, he’ll be not just “criticized,” but censured. That’ll learn him.
[Update a few minutes later]
The FBI may have violated criminal statutes in it application to the FISA court. Well, I’m sure they’ll be “censured.”

This seems related: Career civil servants illegitimately rule America. We really need an overhaul of civil service, including outlawing public-employee unions. It’s particularly horrible in California.
To The Moon
Bob Zubrin says we need a purpose-driven space program.
Not enough opportunities for graft in that.
California
…has the worst quality of life in the nation. Yes, if you’re not rich, and/or a current homeowner, you’re screwed.
Mars And SLS
I really find Chris Carberry’s op-ed on SLS incomprehensible. Oh, I don’t mean I don’t understand it, it just seems disconnected with reality, and the interests of anyone seriously interested in seeing humans go to Mars. He speaks about SLS as thought it has kind of reality, and actual utility. To me, a sane Mars organization would be screaming bloody murder at the waste of money to the detriment of hardware needed to actually get to Mars.

Thoughts on the ever-receding SLS, from Bob Zimmerman.

The Schiff Obstruction
The Democrats are increasingly flailing.

The Russian colluded massively With Democrats.
And between Trump and Obama, who is/was tougher on Russia? Hey, he did want to pass the message on to Vlad that after the election, he’d be “more flexible.”
Space Colonies
This idiotic sort of thing is what my current project, to make the international legal environment more friendly to space development and settlement, partially about.
Acculturating
It’s hard. Very hard.
If you don’t read Sarah Hoyt every day, you should.
The Voting Age
Jim Treacher has a modest proposal.
On Twitter the other day, I proposed lowering it to minus nine months, to increase the pro-life vote.
The Second Amendment
We need it more than ever.
Yup. The current situation is approaching exactly what the Founders feared.

Mark Steyn: A total failure of the State.
That assumes, of course, that this wasn’t exactly what the State intended.
[Update a few minutes later]
Yes, it would appear that “liberals” don’t want to stop school shootings.
